Weather Facts and Fun Book

"Weather Facts and Fun" is an interactive, educational, fun look at weather by one of New England's pre-eminent meteorologists, Josh Judge and award-winning NH schoolteacher Kathe Cussen.
Written in a manner meant to be understandable to 7-11 year olds, the ninety-eight pages in the book even offer adults information that they may not have known before - for instance, the difference between sleet and hail. Over ninety pictures (many in full-color) show weather at its most beautiful and most destructive. Two foldout maps in the back and challenges at the end of each chapter offer readers the chance to learn about the weather while doing fun activities. For instance, you can learn how to preserve snowflakes forever with two common household items!
Josh Judge is a meteorologist with WMUR TV-9 in Manchester, New Hampshire, the most powerful television station north of Boston. He received the CBM seal (Certified Broadcast Meteorologist seal from the
AMS) in 2006, and was among the first few in New England to get it.
Judge has also been voted "Best Meteorologist in New Hampshire" four years running by NH Magazine.
Cussen is a middle-school science teacher in Hampstead, New Hampshire, and she won the honor of being named "NH's Environmental Educator of
the Year" in 2002.
Concentrating on New Hampshire and New England weather, the book meets or exceeds all NH teaching requirements and recommendations.
However, the lessons and activities in the book are also meant to be relevant and educational anywhere.
Author and former PBS host Richard Lederer writes the foreword for the book.
"Weather Facts and Fun" is sure to delight kids,please teachers and be a welcome addition to any household with curious children.
